Description:

AdderLink Infinity (ALIF) dual 2020 is an IP-based high performance KVM (Keyboard, Video and Mouse) extender that forms part of the ALIF matrix solution. This enables you to locate your critical computing hardware in a secure and temperature controlled environment away from the user work station, whilst maintaining a pixel perfect desktop experience. The AdderLink Infinity Dual 2020, one of the newest IP-based high performance KVM solutions from Adder Technology, is an extender product which forms part of the ALIF matrix solution, enabling users to locate critical computing hardware from a secure and temperature controlled environment, away from the user workstation. The 2020 features a transmitter and receiver, while providing a dual head, single link solution delivered entirely over an IP-based network. With its special-lossless encoding system and EDID management, the 2020 guarantees pixel perfect and colour accurate video with no artefacts. If distance is a concern, the user can simply add a 1GbE network device to achieve an additional 100 meters of extension, or utilize the device’s SFP cages with fibre optic transceivers, allowing nearly limitless extension distances. Additionally, the new model was developed, for lower cost single link only dual video solutions and this compliments the existing AdderLink Infinity range.

Features:

Perfect digital video, real time control

Using a spatially-lossless encoding system, with 1:1 pixel mapping, AdderLink Infinity provides pixel perfect and color accurate video with no artefacts. The digital video you receive is the same as the digital video leaving the remote computer.
Single CATx cable or fiber with immunity from interference

Using standard IP technology means you have the choice of a single structured cable (CATx) or fiber connection. The result is that you achieve reliable links without interferance. The AdderLink Infinity dual 2020 also offers the option of up to 10km distances with fiber.
Unlimited extension distances

Extension distance is not limited to a single 100 meter cable length - If you need to extend further, simply add a 1GbE network device to achieve an additional 100 meters. The units are also fitted with SFP cages to accept fiber optic transceivers which enable much greater extension distances.
Support for MacPro (Dithered Video)

Some graphics cards use a technique called dithering to give the appearance of a deeper color depth than is actually the case. As a result, dithering can significantly increase the normal video data rates. ALIF2002T has a feature called Magic Eye which supports dithering without allowing it to degrade overall link performance.
USB 2.0 with class control

Enables connection of USB devices from mice and keyboards through to graphics tablets, jog shuttles, joysticks and 3D explorers, alongside mass storage devices. For applications where security is of high importance, the system has the ability to disable the use of non-HID devices, meaning there is no need to physically block USB ports to prevent the use of mass storage devices.
EDID management

Intelligent EDID management allows the true characteristics of the monitor to be passed back to the computer. This ensures perfect video display without additional configuration.
Plug and Play

AdderLink Infinity extender devices are delivered in a zero config state so you can plug them in and start working on them straight away. There is no need for drivers or software to be installed.
Redundant network operation

The units are able to detect whether the network is in operation and can automatically change to its second network port if it detects a failure.
AdderLink Infinity Matrix

With the addition of AdderLink Infinity Management system (A.I.M.) you can turn multiple point-to-point extenders into a truly scalable digital KVM matrix system that allows any workstation to link with any computer connected to the network. See the Adderlink Infinity Matrix data sheet for details.
